Gears 5 Tech Test - Bug Reports

2 players : Profiles, not guest, on same console Xbox One X

FDL Kamikaz - RabbitFoxU

My report :

  1. Reactivity of the system
    The control of the character is interrupted if one of them consults the map, the scoreboard or the options.

If any of them changes the options, even finding.
It also happens, a partial loss of control without consulting the options, the character starts to run alone.

We can also see a system shift between the interaction of the “Joystick” of each profile and what happens on the screen.

  1. Multiplayer:

As usual, the inactivity of one player against the action of another;
One player works the assault, while the other waits. Gun damage (Gnasher or Lanzor) does not promote fair action.
There are no exchanges when 2 or 3 players are against 1, again we find ourselves in a situation where no teammate can help us during this phase. The player in difficulty does not defend himself, he dies before he can put a 2nd raffale.

The chain saw in the back is not favored, it is effective but not faster then we have the effect of surprise on the one who remains on his position of defense or outpost.

Only happened once but a bot executed me while I was still up with 100% HP and holding a meatshield

Hi @TC_Octus

This weekend i have came across what looks to be a memory leak, it started last night where my ram usage would just increase on each match played to the point it was maxing out my ram. (16gb system / 6gb Vram)

The game play would become very stuttery around about 5gb of usage.

Please see below for the usuage and specs on my system.

Ryzen 2700 CPU
16gb DDR4 3000MHZ
1660TI GPU
B450 Tomahawk Motherboard

I am currently uninstalling and reinstalling Gears 5 to see if this fixes the problem.

Please note, this issue started while i was streaming, so today i played without streaming and the issue continued.

If there is anything i can try that you can think of please advise.

Unable to start any game. Says a Xbox live connection is needed. I’m signed and can play any other game. Been trying since Friday, but immediately says

Unable to connect to the gears of war services. A connection to Xbox live could not be established please check your connection and try again

I can’t find any bugs because I can’t play the game. I get halfway through the Boot Camp and the game gives me the 502 error about my graphics card. I have been trying to get into a lobby to see if it plays at all and it kicks me out of every match before I can load into the game. Im assuming something is keeping me from playing the game, but I cant figure out what it is.

Tech Test won’t launch.

W10 Pro, version1903 - latest version, no pending windows updates.
i5 - 4690K
GTX 970 - latest drivers
16GB RAM

The tech test refuses to launch. No matter what I do. And I cannot uninstall it and reinstall it to test. The uninstall option does not appear on programs and features, nor windows store. Tried restarting PC several times, no effect. Tried hitting the install button multiple times, but it says it’s already installed.

The bots are a complete bug in this game. They get stuck in the middle of anywhere. They dont have a gnasher. They walk to a enemy and kiss them and give them a hug!

Hi. So I tried to play the escalation mode on Xbox One a few hours ago and I’m really having a hard time finding a match. I’ve actually tried to join escalation in the tech test the previous week but to no avail. I would just like to know if this is a problem with my NAT or should I have waited a little longer than 5 minutes as shown in my screenshot below? Thank you very much. Aside from that, quickplay had been awesome!

This while streaing, im going to guess Gears 5 should not be using this much ram for 1080p gaming!

Had this intermittently if I tried to change to flashbang before match starts.

-Awarded “Death from below” and “Death from beyond” ribbons at the same time for one kill.
-After joining a match and changing my character during the spawn timer, I got the “Preferred character customization missing” notice and spawned as kait. I was able to change on next death.
-Kicking a DBNO enemy up stairs while moving backwards never works with the auto lunge even if your moving towards the enemy

LETS ALL FORGET JUDGEMENT 2 HAPPENED AND GO BACK TO GOW 4.
These dudes decide tochange the mechanics AGAIN , without ever getting it right

Weapon Skin Issues: Week 2

Not sure if the weapon skins were only available during the first tech test, but on week 2 of the tech test I unlocked the gnasher (winning 15 games) and the skin says its unlocked. After checking the customization screen the skin isn’t there. I would post images of task completion, but I’m a new user so I can’t do that :confused:

Try restarting the game. This was an issue last week and restarting fixed it for a lot of people

That seemed to work in combination with a hard reset for the xbox. Thanks!

I’m on the OG Xbox, this has happened a few times only during KOTH, playing in Scotland so I’m on the EU servers

(PC) Audio cutting in and out constantly when using audio through Xbox controller.

When using my Xbox controller for audio the games audio will cut in and out, this happens during all modes but other audio such as Spotify in the background still work as intended. This only happens when the audio is going through my elite controller as when i directly connect my headset to my PC the audio works fine, but i cant use my mic as my headset doesn’t have separate audio/mic connectors.

Edit: I got into a game with someone in voice chat and voice chat works fine it is just the game play audio which has the problem
